Feeling horny but blood and mess stress you out? How to make sex on your period as hot (or hotter) than any other time of the month.

It seems like a cruel trick of nature that many of us feel a heightened sense of sexuality during our period when internalized shame about menstruation tells us we should be keeping ourselves and everyone else as far away from our blood as possible. If you’re one of these women, you’re not alone. There’s evidence to suggest that oxytocin (aka, “the cuddle hormone") rises prior to menstruation making it more likely that you’ll feel the urge for sexual intimacy.
